I did get the aimpoint sighted in dead center at 25 yrds and within 1/2 to 1 inch at 50 yrds with a good tight group, does this sound normal. the iron sites i got on paper at 25 and 50 i just didnt spend alot of time on the iron sites.

I had a hard time sighting the irons in. It shot low/left and i couldnt figure out which way to get it up/right, i adjusted the rear to the left and didnt seem to help. i also adjusted the front sight up and down and didnt seem to make much difference all at 25 yrds, So i moved to the aimpoint and it was easy to center at 25 and 50. So if i was shooting low/left which way would i move the rear sight???
So if i was hitting low to the left, i mover the rear sight to the right?????
When i look at my adjustment now on the rear it is to the left of the center, so i guess i should center it and start from there right ???
I do it the opposite. Zero the optic first then the Irons. The Irons are back ups only needed if the optic fails. The optic is the primary sight that will be used first. The irons need to be zeroed however. And you should practice with them from time to time to stay familiar in the very unlikely event your optics fail.

Thats kinda what i was thinking.
With the Aimpoint I sighted the irons first and then I placed the red dot above the front sight post and adjusted from there. It's easier that way with the aimpoint since it's not magnified.
I switched to an ACOG (TA31F) today so I sighted the optic first and then my new Troy flip up rear BUIS. Well, I really didn't have to sight it in. I just threw it on and tried the iron at 100m and they worked just fine :D.
Is there anyone that can help you? Or better yet, is there a class you can take around your area?
